What is the difference between actor-critic and advantage actor-critic?
Actor-Critic is not just a single algorithm, it should be viewed as a "family" of related techniques. They're all techniques based on the policy gradient theorem, which train some form of critic that computes some form of value estimate to plug into the update rule as a lower-variance replacement for the returns at the end of an episode. They all perform "bootstrapping" by using some sort of prediction of value.

Advantage Actor-Critic specifically uses estimates of the advantage function $A(s, a) = V(s) - Q(s, a)$ for its bootstrapping, whereas "actor-critic" without the "advantage" qualifier is not specific; it could be a trained $V(s)$ function, it could be some sort of estimate of $Q(s, a)$, it could be a variety of things. 

In practice, the critic of Advantage Actor-Critic methods actually can just be trained to predict $V(s)$. Combined with an empirically observed reward $r$, they can then compute the advantage estimate $A(s, a) = r + \gamma V(s') - V(s)$.
